I photographed these Yellow-eyed Juncos in the Chiricahua Mountains of southeastern Arizona in March of 2006, and they were by far the most common bird that I observed there. The March weather was cold and windy with light snow, but these juncos braved the cold and snow to get some of the birdseed that I'd tossed on the ground.

Yellow-eyed Juncos are usually found on or near the ground, and these bold birds are generally fairly brave around humans and don't seem to mind being photographed, especially if there's free birdseed involved.
